*Again I have done my best to emulate the original pressing as best I can. Unfortunately (or not depending on your taste) I've not been able to find a digital copy or otherwise of The Commentators parody single "N-N-Nineteen (Not Out) which was based on Paul Hardcastle's seminal "19" (peaking at number one just prior to NOW 5's release). In it's place I have added "19". Although not an accurate portrait of NOW 5, I personally think that "19" only adds to the greatness that is Record 2 Side 1.
